ABSTRACT: The role of internships in building professional skills of physical
education students in training has led to many reflections. The data from this
study, which are part of the field of professional didactics, reflect the development of
professionalism of student trainees. The descriptive and interpretive study
included 74 physical education trainee students engaged in field placements.
The data collection used a professional skills assessment grid and interviews
to capture the meaning they attribute to their personal and subjective
experience during the internships. The results obtained show that internships
have repercussions on the professional skills acquired by trainee students, in
relation to the level of communication between trainee and student teachers,
the design of teaching situations, the assessment of the progress of learning
and learning, and the degree of skill acquisition. In conclusion, the results
of this work call for the improvement of conditions for monitoring and
developing the experience of trainee students in terms of didactic,
psychopedagogical and environmental knowledge.
